Vibecoding shouldn't cost so much
Meet Intentra, the CLI-first platform that catches AI coding violations (like when Cursor ignores your instructions) and helps you recover wasted costs. Built for developers who care about accountability.

See Intentra in action
From installation to insights in under a minute
Zero-friction setup
One command to install. One command to enable tracking. Start seeing your AI costs immediately.
Instant visibility
Every scan tracked in real-time. See exactly what you're spending and where violations occur.
Actionable insights
Violations highlighted automatically. Know immediately when tools waste your budget.
What exactly is a "scan"?
A scan is the LLM calls that occur between prompts. Even if the AI retries multiple times, you only pay for 1 scan.
💡Why scans, not tokens?
Technical note: A scan is 3-5 LLM API calls1 grouped by user intent. We handle the complexity of hook aggregation, so you only pay for meaningful actions.
1 Average based on analysis of 10,000+ real AI coding sessions across Cursor and Claude Code. Simple tasks (typo fixes) typically use 1-2 calls, complex refactors use 5-8 calls. We use the median range for billing simplicity.
Built for transparency
Catch violations, recover costs, and take control of your AI spending
CLI-First Architecture
Single Go binary. No IDE extensions. Works with Cursor, Claude Code, and future tools.
8 Violation Types
Detect ignored instructions, retry loops, excessive thinking, context waste, and more wasteful patterns.
Refund Intelligence
Identify recoverable costs from provider errors. Export formatted evidence for disputes.
Real-Time Dashboard
